2nd Grade Literary Landscapes

I needed a calming project that would keep these kids busy for a few days so I found this project...can't remember where...maybe Artsonia? But anyways it was great and also incorporated some vertical planning into the lesson.

We talked about adjectives and nouns, landscapes, foreground, middleground and background, and marker wash technique. So it was a well-rounded and meaty lesson great for an observation!

I would recommend not doing the marker wash and just coloring in with crayons instead since the 'marker wash' washed away some words...that took forever to write. :)
